1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

backgroundHyperglycemia is a risk factor for impaired renal function, including cellular metabolic disturbance, apoptosis, inflammation, and histologic lesion. This study aims to investigate the potential therapeutic targeting of cyclin-dependent kinase 5 (Cdk5) in hyperglycemia-induced podocyte dysfunction and renal damage.

methodsCell viability and apoptosis of podocytes were assessed through CCK-8 and TUNEL staining, respectively, following exposure to normal glucose (NG; 5 mM), high glucose (HG; 30 mM), or treatment with Cdk5 inhibitors (trans-resveratrol, myricetin, salvianolic acid A, and BML-259). Diabetic mice were established by intraperitoneal injection of freshly streptozotocin (STZ), which was given at a dose of 35 mg/kg in five successive injections. Additionally, histochemical staining was employed to evaluate the morphologic lesion of the kidney.

resultsCdk5 was found to be activated by HG stimulation both

conclusionBoth myricetin and BML-259 exhibit comparable protective effects on renal injury by inhibiting Cdk5.
